The Society has formed a short-life working group to review the consultation, and the first meeting was really informative. With shared perspectives from a voluntary group of dental nurses working in different settings, there was certainly a lot to discuss, particularly from certain clinical spaces. We intend to keep everyone up to speed with our findings and as part of the Dental Professional Alliance share the work further. Until then, as part of the Dental Professional Alliance, all we ask is that you keep an eye on the website. If you would like to contribute, please do get in touch – admin@sbdn.org.uk
